I wish I did.
Presently in San Francisco. (Mail me if you'd like to catch up.) It feels so mild outside compared to Montr'eal or even Canberra. It's a little wierd to see people buying padded jackets and beanies.
The exchange rate (1AUD ~= 0.50USD) and high prices here are bizarre. I studied economics at highschool, but this still bends my brain. It's almost like there's superinflation in California: my money's not worth anything anymore.
I'm in the Linuxcare Townsend St office at the moment. The place has no windows, but nice industrial-ish interior decoration: high ceilings, many exposed pipes, lots of bright red plastic/paneling features. It feels like a mid-budget SF spaceship set.
The flight was completely packed; I did not have VeryGoodSeats.
ss Your hacking proweress is quite aposite to the Montr'eal cypherpunk milleu. In a way, occasional forgeries or intrusions are useful, as they help bring the perceived authentication down to a technically realistic level.
